The following article may require assistance from your IT department/provider. We recommend forwarding this article to them to apply the solution provided.
Description
If you are making any changes to the host or hardware (e.g. CPU) of the server, you will need to follow the transfer process below.
This article does not apply to local/standalone licences. For information on transferring local node-lock licences, please click here.
Steps
Existing server / before changes are made
- Remote onto the existing Network License Server.
- Launch Command Prompt.
- Change your working directory to the folder of your Network License Server, where the NLS-UTIL exists.
For example: cd C:\Program Files\Micromine Network License Server
Note: if the NLS-UTIL doesn’t exist at C:\Program Files\Micromine Network License Server then please download and move to the above location - Network License Server Management Utility (NLS-UTIL). The NLS-UTIL can also be used remotely from the server, however, you will need to amend the server IP/hostname to reflect this.
- Use the following command to show the current license features installed. This will show you the features you can return. Replace the IP to your existing NLS.
nls-util.exe -server 127.0.0.1 -command list-licence-features
- Use the following command to return the license feature.
nls-util.exe -server 127.0.0.1 -command return-licence-features MICROMINE
Take note of the returned license activation code. You will need this later.
Note: License features have a return limit of 2 in a 30-day period. If exceeded, please submit a support case for further assistance.
New server / after changes are made
- Remote onto your new Network License Server.
- Follow steps 2-6 above.
- Use the following command to activate the license, replacing ActivationCode with the activation code you noted earlier. Ensure you specify the IP of the new NLS.
nls-util.exe -server 127.0.0.1 -command activate-licence -activation-code ActivationCode
- License activation should now be complete.
